- According to a press release Monday morning, climate activists want to kick off the “Stand Up for Change” week of action with the cast.
The climate movement and several hundred people have taken to the Bundesplatz in Bern in protest against the political and economic system responsible for the climate crisis, he said. According to the statement, the activists are inviting other citizens to come to the Bundesplatz and join the protest against the climate crisis.
However, the cantonal police did not want to confirm information about the number of participants and the scope of the protest. The authorities only referred to later information from the media office.
Focus on Parliament and the SNB
The Bundesplatz is a symbol of the “destruction caused by the climate crisis,” the activists wrote. Parliament and the Federal Council had given the aviation industry nearly two billion francs, and the Swiss National Bank and Credit Suisse continued to invest billions in promoting fossil fuels, they criticized.
At the same time, the climate movement announced new actions against institutional politics, the business elite and the financial center until September 25.
